The details involved were even more complicated than we had imagined.
This involved none other than the Qiong Family.
Fatty Qiong, who loaned money, and Qiong Wuliang, who robbed tombs.
Fine, fine, fine. Since they had crossed paths with us, we would wipe them all out together.
But I had one question.
Why had all the antiques Auntie Liu previously acquired been tainted with ghostly energy?
Could it be that those antiques had nothing to do with the Braided Ghost?
With that thought, I spoke again:
"Braided Ghost, did you leave the ghostly energy on those antiques in the house?"
After hearing this, the Braided Ghost nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, Young Master. The Liu family offended Master Qiong Wuliang.
So Master Qiong Wuliang had someone sell an ancient burial item along with three other antiques to the Liu family.
Once the Liu family obtained the burial item, Master Qiong Wuliang could control us slave souls and send us here to harm them...
Afterward, Master Qiong Wuliang had someone buy back one of the antiques from the tomb.
He left behind three defective antiques marked with ghostly energy by this lowly one in the shop.
That way, this lowly one could freely enter and leave the antique store.
And would not be shut out, allowing me to continue harming the Liu family..."
So that was it.
No wonder one of the four antiques had been sold, while the remaining three carried faint ghostly energy.
It had all been a scheme by that man called Qiong Wuliang. He was using the protective mechanism of the Slave Stele Ghosts over tomb antiques to harm others.
From the looks of it, this Qiong Wuliang was not particularly strong.
He only knew a few underhanded tricks.
Having figured everything out, everyone now understood the full story.
